Editorial Review:
"Hot gets you into trouble," cautions high-living 1940s-era playboy Alec Baldwin. He doesn't know the half of it. Days before his marriage to Hollywood studio heiress Elisabeth Shue, he falls madly in bed with shapely lounge singer Kim Basinger and ends up in an unlikely shotgun marriage. They divorce, they remarry, they divorce, they... you get the picture. Baldwin, all cool confidence in his sharp suits, and Basinger, who looks poured into her stylish, curve-hugging gowns, fell in love while shooting this 1991 film. Unfortunately their onscreen chemistry, apart from a couple of simmering bedroom scenes, is anything but combustible.

Neil Simon based his original screenplay on a real-life Hollywood story of l'amour fou, but even in his hands the ping-ponging romance feels contrived. Without that troublesome heat of uncontrollable passion, this amiable comic drama winds up lukewarm. --Sean Axmaker

The Marrying Man [Region 2] Reviews:
Fun Movie
2009-09-10 - This is simply a fun movie to watch and it proves that Alec Baldwin is one of the truly underated actors of his generation

the marrying man
2009-08-04 - product was in excellent condition and the movie was great. I have NEVER had any type of problems ordering from Amazon. Once again, thank you

Good movie
2009-05-24 - This movie is really cute and funny. Its sad that there no longer together, you see what a great couple they make. This movie is enjoyable and fun!!!

A Fun, Romantic Musical Comedy.
2006-08-24 - This adaptation of Neil Simon's play will never be a classic film, but if you can get it cheap, I recommend it highly. There are worse romantic comedies you could waste your time on, but this one is nostalgic and genuinely glamourous fun. It's a great escape from all the current situation settings in similar films.

Charlie Pearl (Alec Baldwin), multi-millionaire, is about to marry movie honcho Lou Horner's (Robert Loggia) daughter until his friends take him to Vegas for a bachelor party, and he falls for club singer Vickie Anderson (Kim Basinger), who also happens to be Bugsy Siegel's (Armand Assante) girlfriend. It's a wild ride between a millionaire playboy and a fast nightclub singer that involves 4 marriages and 3 divorces. It won't change your world, but it certainly is fun, the costumes are excellent, and the soundtrack is among my favorites. Check it out.

"... and they never divorced ever again!"
2006-08-02 - Marrying Man brings to the screen the story of a young and wealthy [...] playboy who has finally met the woman he wants to marry and settle down with.
Things get a bit complicated when six days before the wedding he goes to Las Vegas with his buddies only to stumble upon the woman of his dreams...
Alec Baldwin and Kim Basinger carry out their performances very well, though the supporting cast members could have been a little better.
The setting, the plot, and the dialogues are all wonderful!
As for the rating, it should have been PG-13. Why was it rated R???
In a nutshell, it's probably not a movie you would want to add to your collection, but it will surely provide for an evening's entertainment.
